Callista

[edit]

There is a part in Callista's history on this page that is wrong. It was not on Hoth, but rather Degobah where she used the Dark Side. And instead of Wampas it was bats of some kind.

Saba Sabatyne?

[edit]

I Googled Saba Sabatyne, without quotes, and got a grand total of 7 Google hits. 2 were from Wikipedia, 2 were from Wikipedia mirrors, and one was from the Fan Fiction section of the forums at TheForce.net. Since she's clearly not a real character, I deleted her entry. -LtNOWIS 01:02, 25 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thank god. I kept thinking that maybe George Lucas had lost his fing mind. :P --Kross | Talk 01:20, 25 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, in retrospect, it looks like I was wrong. Saba Sebatyne, spelled right, gets 670 Google hits, and is probably real. -LtNOWIS 01:52, 7 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]


I feel the information on Saba Sebatyne is wildly inaccurate. She is not primarily a friend of Jacen Solo's. Her introduction to the SW Universe happened long before the events on Zonama Sekot. She was introduced during Star by Star. Also, as far as we know, she only has one child of her own, Tesar. Bela and Krasov Hara are Tesar's hatchmates through his father.

In-universe

[edit]

Anyone seriously interested in improving the article should consider adding some real world related info, e.g. regarding the concept, creation, and/or function of the character within the Star Wars narrative etc. Please consult our writing about fiction guideline, which also includes a list of exemplary articles.

There are currently three featured articles on Star Wars characters: Palpatine, Padmé Amidala, and Jabba the Hutt. What sets them aside from most of the other SW character articles is the effort to write from the real world perspective. Pay particular attention to paragraphs like Jabba the Hutt#Concept and creation, Palpatine#Concept and creation, and Padmé Amidala#Characterization.

Also take a look at Darth Vader, which despite its lack of reliable, published third-party secondary sources features interesting sections on e.g. #Character creation and concepts and Darth Vader as a #Cultural figure.

Even though reliable sources may be tough to come up with, any effort to introduce coherently written real world aspects will be greatly appreciated, because it contributes to the depth of the article and accurate coverage of the topic, and thereby makes for an improved reading experience and increases the encyclopedic value of the article.

Fair use rationale for Image:Farlanader.jpg

[edit]

Image:Farlanader.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Zekk

[edit]

The last two paragraphs of the Zekk entry seem to contradict each other. Lots42 (talk) 01:29, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Revamp

[edit]

I'm working on amalgamating this and all the other god-awful lists at Category:Lists_of_Star_Wars_characters to remove all the ORish and arbitrary topics (i.e. what makes a character a "villain"? what if he/she later is "good"?) and repetition (e.g. Leia shows up on several of them). Once I've squished them together, they can be broken up just alphabetically like the slightly-less-crappy Star Trek character lists. I've copy-and-pasted these lists as of ~11:30EST 3 Oct -- if you make any additions to this list, I'll try to be sure to maintain them in the reworked version, but please be mindful that something might accidentally be overlooked. Thanks! --EEMIV (talk) 15:39, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect

[edit]

I plan on Monday to replace the current content of List of Star Wars characters with the material at User:EEMIV/StarWarsCharacters, and then to redirect this page to that updated list. Much of the content on this page will go away -- for the better. Wikipedia is an indiscriminate collection of information, even on its list pages, and many of the entries were are truly insignificant characters. If you take exception to this plan, please say so here. --EEMIV (talk) 11:20, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
